MADISON SOUTH

Our neighborhood is nestled against freeways but still contains major natural resources, such as Rocky Butte and Gateway Green. We are also home to The Grotto, Madison High School, and Jason Lee K-8 School. We are part of the Central Northeast Neighborhood Coalition.

Rocky Butte Natural Area and Rocky Butte State Park add history, trails, and scenic views to the neighborhood.

Gateway Green is transforming an unused swath of land between freeways into a center for biking and other activities.

Dharma Rain Zen Center is transforming a plot of land which was once a center of controversy and contention into a zen garden of neighborhood pride.

A group of committed neighbors joined together, with the help of the Urban Farm Collective, to create the Beech Street Community Garden.

The Grotto is a place of peace and sanctuary and also home to the annual Christmas Festival of Lights–featuring a multitude of seasonal lights and choirs singing seasonal songs.

Glenhaven Park, shared between the Madison South and the Roseway neighborhoods brings children out to play, athletes out to compete, walkers to stretch their legs, and skateboarders to test the contours of the skate park.
